For the 11th season, IN A LANDSCAPE: Classical Music in the Wild tours the American West. Mountain tops, old-growth forests, and sunny meadows replace the traditional concert hall in the series featuring pianist Hunter Noack on a 9-foot Steinway concert grand piano. Listen through wireless headphones and wander afield with the music as a soundtrack to your experience in the wild.
This is 2 of 2 IN A LANDSCAPE concerts at Griffith Park. Click for Saturday, September 26.
About this Landscape
Spanning over 4,200 acres and welcoming more than 10 million annual visitors, Griffith Park is one of Los Angeles' most beloved gathering places.
Griffith J. Griffith, the park’s namesake, donated his estate and the funds for an observatory to the city of Los Angeles as a “Christmas present” in December 1896. In the same spirit, our concert partner Trust for Public Land (TPL) raised $12.5 million in 2010 to protect 138 acres of Cahuenga Peak and officially added the landmark to Griffith Park. If not for TPL, views of the iconic Hollywood Sign may have been changed forever.
Our piano will be set up in Bronson Canyon, beneath the Hollywood Sign and just outside the Bronson Caves, which were excavated as part of an early 20th-century rock quarry and later made famous as the Batcave in the 1960s TV series Batman.
Griffith spoke of his dream for the public park “It must be made a place of rest and relaxation for the masses, a resort for the rank and file, for the plain people. I consider it my obligation to make Los Angeles a happy, cleaner and finer city. I wish to pay my debt of duty in this way to the community in which I have prospered.”
This concert takes place on the ancestral lands of the Tongva, Tataviam, Serrano, Kizh, and Chumash Peoples.
